Not sure why.. I'm an experienced crocheter, but when I try this pattern it works itself inside out. Might be because I'm left handed, but I can't for the life of me figure out why it's doing that! Unless it happens that way for you too?

For larger sizes I hope this helps you http://www.bevscountrycottage.com/size-chart.html#hatWhat you have to do is get the circumference of your child's head. (thankfully it should be about the same for your 3 year old as it is for your 12 year old.) You would the divide it by 3.14 to get the diameter . you then would keep increasing the dc until you reach the right diameter. This would just mean a few extra rows. then you would stop increasing dc, and just continue how ever many dcs and fpdc straight down until you reach the height that you desire. (I hope this helps...) ^^;
